TOLUN-P bunker buster

Tolun P is not a simple bunker buster bomb. In fact as bunker busting goes it is not as capable as its bigger brothers like KGK kitted (not sure if they have already done the NEB versions. But there was intention and program to do it) MK83 and MK84 class munitions.

Most bunkers are many metres underground and are built with very thick reinforced concrete. You would need our NEB and Hayalet bombs to penetrate them.

If you noticed, the test involved going through 2metres of earth and then half a metre of concrete before exploding.
This is a munition specifically designed to cheaply destroy tunnels underground.
Of course it can be used to surgically destroy jet fighter hangars and strategic concrete built military buildings too.
